Make 3.79.1 can't build from CD |

I've discovered some problems with make-3.79.1's build scheme that
interfere with compiling it off of the GNU CD-ROM.
First, the build tries to write to a file in the source directory --
which isn't possible since the source directory is on the CD and
readonly. The end of my nohup log follows: (long lines clipped)
gcc -DALIASPATH=\"/usr/share/locale:.\" -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\" -
gcc -DALIASPATH=\"/usr/share/locale:.\" -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\" -
gcc -DALIASPATH=\"/usr/share/locale:.\" -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\" -
gcc -O3 -m486 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -fstrict-aliasing -s -o make ar.
/bin/sh: /vol/cdrom/make-3.79.1/stamp-pot: Read-only file system
make[2]: *** [/vol/cdrom/make-3.79.1/stamp-pot] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/.home/michael/build/make-build'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/.home/michael/build/make-build'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
Second, the self-test procedure seems to assume every file in the test
directories is a test module. This trips on the "TRANS.TBL" files that
Unix CD-ROMs have in every directory. (Actually it doesn't seem to stop
the test from succeeding, but produces a lot of confusing messages during
make check.)
Please fix these in the next release.
